This is something that bugs me.
The TD celebrations like we saw in the Cowboys game.
Aaron Jones doing that sideways leap into the end zone. That is unnecessary and could lead to a serious shoulder injury if he lands wrong
Christian's backflip in the end zone.
You land wrong and there goes an ankle or knee injury.
I don't mind a Lambeau leap, or other celebrations, but ones that can cause a serious injury to me are stupid.
If I was the coach, I'd put an end to those kinds of things immediately.
There are already too many ways to get hurt in football then to take unnecessary risks that really have no upside.
What do you guys/gals think? Am I offbase on this?

You will not find a better or classier TD celebration than you will by this man who scores.

It wouldn't let me view it, but if I was a betting man, I'd bet everything that it's a video of Barry Sanders!😁

Kevin, I didn't have to view it! I know you, and your love for Sanders, so it was a no brainer!
and I knew from watching Sanders play, that that was the kind of guy he was. He wasn't a show boater, "LOOK AT ME" kind of guy.
Just class and rare talent.
To think he wasted that career on lousy Lions teams is a shame. He should have had super bowl rings to go with that.

Jones' celebration was a tribute to Marshan Lynch.
I'll give Watson a one time pass.

I guess he was checking to make sure that 800lb gorilla was finally off his back.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

As a rule I don't like the celebrations in the end zone. Seems childish to me. Act like you've been there before. Then again, I'm a curmudgeon so I keep my mouth shut and let the little boys have fun. The ones I dislike the most are the pre-planned group stuff.
As for the two Cheesey spoke of, I don't mind a guy diving into the endzone. It's hot dogging but I will accept it. After all the hits a player takes in a game the odds of dislocating a shoulder on an endzone dive is low. (It's not zero but it's low.)
The backflip was pretty cool. Then again I watched The Wizard of Oz do it on every opening day so I am biased. A backflip in full football gear is pretty impressive. Ozzy Smith got a running start before his flips. CW, not at all.
Just to take it full circle, if this was a playoff contending team and both players went on IL for said playoffs I wouldn't be happy.

Zero2Cool (21m) : Easier to get a camera on her in the suite where she can't impact the game by being distraction???

TheKanataThrilla (22m) : This is the least excited I have been in a long time for a Super Bowl. Unfortunately they both can't lose.

wpr (28m) : So why don;'t they have her on the sidelines and doing the halftime fandango instead of sitting on her but in a $1,000,000 suite?

Zero2Cool (1h) : Think more eyes on Super Bowl with Swift fans pulling for her TE boyfriend?

Zero2Cool (1h) : She dating the TE of the Chiefs.

Zero2Cool (1h) : Taylor Swift has millions of fans, yeah?

Zero2Cool (2h) : They did. They are going to show the post production Sunday with plethora of ads.

Zero2Cool (23h) : If you wanna post about the Super Bowl, please, by all means, open a topic. They are free this month! 😁

Zero2Cool (23h) : There doesn't need to be a topic. There's a playoff prediction thread.

packerfanoutwest (23h) : and there no SB contest over in the other Packer forum, either

buckeyepackfan (23h) : #2Officially Retires!

beast (4-Feb) : Probably no SB topic as people are wore out talking about the Chiefs, Refs and Eagles

Zero2Cool (4-Feb) : WR Cooper Kupp is being traded.

Zero2Cool (30-Jan) : DL Coach DeMarcus Covington

dfosterf (30-Jan) : from ft Belvoir, Quantico and points south. Somber reminder of this tragedy at Reagan Nat Airport

dfosterf (30-Jan) : So eerily quiet here in Alexandria. I live in the flight path of commercial craft coming from the south and west, plus the military craft

dfosterf (30-Jan) : So eeri

Mucky Tundra (30-Jan) : Now that's a thought, maybe they're looking at the college ranks? Maybe not head coaches but DC/assistant DCs with league experience?

beast (30-Jan) : College Coaches wouldn't want that publicly, as it would hurt recruiting and they might not get the job.

beast (30-Jan) : I thought they were supposed to publicly announce them, at least the NFL ones. Hafley was from college, so I believe different rules.

Mucky Tundra (30-Jan) : Who knows who they're interviewing? I mean, nobody knew about Hafley and then out of nowhere he was hired

beast (30-Jan) : I wonder what's taking so long with hiring a DL coach, 2 of the 3 known to interview have already been hired elsewhere.

Zero2Cool (27-Jan) : Packers coach Matt LaFleur hires Luke Getsy as senior assistant, extends Rich Bisaccia's deal

Zero2Cool (27-Jan) : Chiefs again huh? I guess another Super Bowl I'll be finding something else to do.

dfosterf (27-Jan) : Happy Birthday Dave!

Mucky Tundra (27-Jan) : happy birthday dhazer

TheKanataThrilla (26-Jan) : Exactly buck...Washington came up with the ball. It is just a shitty coincidence one week later

buckeyepackfan (26-Jan) : I forgot, they corrected the call a week later. Lol btw HAPPY BIRTHDAY dhazer!

buckeyepackfan (26-Jan) : That brings up the question, why wasn't Nixon down by contact? I think that was the point Kanata was making.

buckeyepackfan (26-Jan) : Turnovers rule, win the turnover battle, win the game.
